Chapter 147: The First Emperor and Concubine Visit
A month later, Nalan Lan'er had no sense of time.
During this time, she wandered in the past, confused. Time flies fast or slow, meaningful or meaningless, and no matter how scheming people are, they must have a heart of patience when they are calm enough.
Nalan Lan'er can be smart, but there is no doubt that she has doubts about herself. Under this doubt, she tried to find herself, and overthrew herself that she had finally found, endlessly.
Eat when you're hungry and sleep when you're sleepy. Even if the food placed at the door was like a pig or a dog, she still chewed it. It doesn't matter what it tastes like, it's become an innate eating behavior.
If she is sleepy, she can sleep there, and no one will care about her in a cold palace alone.
It's the tail end of summer, and the nights are starting to get colder.
Nalan Lan'er looked at the moonlight outside the door in the dark cold palace, enduring the harassment of mosquitoes, and her eyes were empty.
She wasn't cold at all, just curled up in one place to keep warm. She was not mellow in the first place, and after this period of time, she became thinner and thinner. She still maintains her previous habit when she is occasionally in a daze, and she is used to gently combing her long hair with a comb, and I remember that a long time ago she said that she could wash her body if it was dirty, and it would be difficult to do it if her hair was dirty.
When she fell asleep in a daze, she had a dream.
In the dream, she sat in the queen's Fengyi Palace, wearing the queen's clothes and a red hijab. It seemed that after waiting for a long time, a man broke in drunk. Pulling her to drink, she drank many glasses, and the man was happy.
Suddenly, the picture turned, and the man fell on top of her, bleeding from his mouth and nose.
The feeling of being scared is like being there.
The man was motionless and then slowly opened his eyes and looked at her and said, "You are so bold that you dare to poison me!" ”
Before her heart palpitations could settle down, the picture changed to a man standing up and pointing at her with blood on his face: "I want to kill you all over the house!" ”
That kind of look...... Nalan Lan'er woke up with a sigh, panting heavily, she was shocked into a cold sweat, in this cold night.
It was quiet, and even the crickets outside were chirping. One of her screams seemed abrupt, and yes, there was no one here. It's been a long, long time, and Wan'er and the eunuchs haven't reappeared. Is it because she really has no place to turn over this time and can't get out of the cold palace, right?
So everyone abandoned her, who made her like this?
I'm glad it was a dream, but when I wake up, it's no different from that nightmare.
Approaching dawn, Nalan Lan'er, who couldn't stand the darkest time, finally choked in a low voice. None of this is what she wants, and what does it matter who she is? She couldn't imagine how she had killed the emperor, obviously so scared.
The low whimper made the whole cold palace even more gloomy. But at this quiet time, a thin figure slowly walked in the doorway.
Unafraid of this gloomy cold palace, she gently walked forward and pulled the person lying on the simple bed board.
"Don't cry." With a soft voice, Lan'er was startled, she didn't hear footsteps.
"Wan'er?" Nalan Lan'er asked uncertainly in a trembling mute voice, feeling the temperature on her arm, she stopped choking.
Wan'er in the dark took out a piece of clothing and draped it over her, and said softly: "Wan'er is late, and she has suffered so much for Niangniang." ”
"You...... How did you come here? Nalan Lan'er calmed down and pulled Wan'er to stand up with her backhand.
Wan'er laughed quietly: "Wan'er is Niangniang's maidservant, how can you throw Niangniang away." Since the mother entered this cold palace, the slave maid was assigned to work in other places, and it took a lot of tricks to be kicked back here. ”
Nalan Lan'er listened to Wan'er's tone, and she didn't seem to have the consciousness of Leng Gong at all. She was moved: "Thank you Wan'er, you are by my side every time." ”
Wan'er smiled silently in the dark, didn't say anything, just quietly patted Nalan Lan'er's back.
It took a long time for a very light sentence to come out: "Niangniang, everything will be fine." ”
Nalan Lan'er was a little relieved because Wan'er came, and unconsciously lay down tired and fell asleep. Hearing this sentence faintly, my heart was full of confusion, would it really be okay?
After a few months, many things have improved a lot since Wan'er came. Wan'er also looks a little more energetic than before.
This morning, Nalan Lan'er got up early in the morning and heard some noisy sounds, walked to the cold palace gate to look outside, the lights were lit up in the distance, and the palace maid was in a hurry with things in a hurry.
This cold palace is located in the middle of nowhere, and when you look out from the door, you can still see some things in the palace in the distance, because she has been in a daze, Nalan Lan'er didn't care too much.
At this time, she felt very confused, so she asked Wan'er to go out to investigate, and the concubine who entered the cold palace could not take a step out of the cold palace.
After a while, Wan'er came back and looked at Nalan Lan'er worriedly and said, "Niangniang, it was the queen who gave birth to a big prince." ”
Hearing this, Nalan Lan'er's heart suddenly changed, so it was. The queen helped him give birth to a prince. She smiled: "The emperor must be happy, right?" Huh..."
Anyone with any bright eye could see the bitterness of her smile. Wan'er looked at her worriedly and said, "Niangniang......"
Nalan Lan'er only waved her hand: "I'm fine, Wan'er, you can get busy first." I want to take a break. ”
Wan'er looked at her back, bit her lip and turned to busi.
Nalan Lan'er said that she was going to rest, but she just lay on the bed and cried silently. A woman gave birth to a child for him, and he was so happy before he gave birth, he must be holding the child and laughing at this time.
She doesn't have to hope that she can get out of here, and the emperor won't think of her after having a child. After these months of silence, I knew that she had been abandoned to this corner. Or never be able to take another step in your life.
How long is a lifetime? Will she die of old age here with gray hair, or will she die before she grows old?
And Fengyi Palace is full of joy, the emperor and the queen mother are guarding the queen here.
The baby in the swaddling clothes is stretching out its arms and kicking its legs vigorously, looking very energetic. The queen mother looked at it and liked it more and more, and she couldn't wait to take it back to the palace and bring it herself. Considering that the queen had to breastfeed, she gave up.
The emperor pulled the child's entire palm with one finger, such a small child is amazing. He was a father for the first time, and this feeling cannot be expressed in words.
The queen mother held the child and looked at the emperor with a smile: "The emperor and grandson of the mourning family are exactly the same as when the emperor was born, and he is very energetic when he is born." Active and intelligent, he must be a pillar of talent when he grows up. ”
The emperor's smile did not stop, and he had deeply engraved the appearance of the child in his mind. Turning around and sitting on the edge of the queen's bed, he held her hand and said, "The queen has worked hard." ”
was seen by the emperor so tenderly, the queen was overjoyed, and her face was full of happiness.
"Your Majesty, this is what a concubine should be. Child, this is our child. As she spoke, she looked at the little figure in the arms of the Queen Mother, full of maternal love.
The emperor looked at the past with a smile, but at that moment he suddenly remembered someone, a person who he had always wanted to forget but couldn't forget. Is she okay in the cold palace? It's been a long time since I've seen her appearance, but her face has always been engraved in his mind.
People who are happy with each other can only miss in their own minds due to many factors.
In the evening, the bustle outside did not continue, but the red light still lingered throughout the palace.
Nalan Lan'er and Wan'er sat at the same table to eat. Since entering the cold palace, Nalan Lan'er has asked for this, because this cold palace no longer needs such false courtesies.
Looking at this rare and sumptuous meal, Wan'er sandwiched some delicious meat to Nalan Lan'er, and said vigorously: "Niangniang eat more, you didn't eat well during this time, and you lost weight again." ”
Clip all the dishes that Wan'er gave her back. Nalan Lan'er smiled: "Wan'er usually does so much work to make up for it. ”
It was not interesting to push again and again, so Wan'er had to eat silently.
Nalan Lan'er touched the scene and thought farther: "We can eat such a sumptuous meal today because of the blessing of the eldest prince." ”
Wan'er glanced up at her, she felt that Nalan Lan'er had changed and became sentimental. There is no longer the confident appearance of the past. After a silent dinner, the cold palace ushered in an uninvited guest.
"You ......" When Nalan Lan'er saw the person coming at the gate of the cold palace, she stood up in shock.
She had seen her, because this person was the imperial concubine of the former emperor, and on the day of the concubine ceremony, the queen mother brought her to testify.
The first imperial concubine kept looking at Nalan Lan'er from the moment she entered the door, she didn't take the initiative to say hello or let Nalan Lan'er salute, she just sat down and said, "I know, you are the first queen." ”
Nalan Lan'er was stunned for a moment, and looked up at the person sitting opposite, she was the same age as herself, but she became the concubine of the former emperor.
Looking at her serious look, Nalan Lan'er said: "I'm Nalan Lan'er, why do you identify me as the first queen?" ”
The first imperial concubine smiled: "I entered the palace with you, fighting each other, your personality, temperament, small actions, and tone of speech cannot be changed." I could see at a glance that you were Nalan Yanran, but I didn't expect you to become the queen of the previous emperor and the concubine of the current emperor. After all, Yu still had some envious expressions.
Nalan gave up answering her question, and Nalan Yanran Nalan Yanran again, no one gave up on letting her admit that she was Nalan Yanran.
Something that was not easy to ignore was mentioned again, and Nalan Lan'er's brain boomed, as if it had exploded.
The first imperial concubine looked at her and continued: "Since you have re-entered the palace, why don't you change your appearance?" Besides, I never knew that you had such a heavy scheming, and you could deceive everyone for so long, although they fought with each other back then, but the emperor died early. I thought you died in the palace, and even the whole door was copied and beheaded. ”
